The design of the this restaurant is really fantastic. There is a real size samurai uniform at the entrance. The seating areas are separated into different zones, each with a unique theme, representing modern Japan or some traditional elements incorporated in the designs. Thus if you sit at different areas during your different visits, it may feel different too.
The best part of this restaurant is that there is a lot of variety. Basically all types of Japanese food that you can think of is available here. Sushi, sashimi, ramen, tempura, teppanyaki, okonomiyaki, paper steamboat, japanese pizza, pasta, omu rice, curry rice, burger and fries, canned drinks, macha ice cream and deserts etc. I've been there four times and have yet to try a lot of categories.
My first recommendation would be their omelette. Made with different fillings such as ham and cheese, topped with mayonaise, it is one to remember and good to compliment your meals.
Next will be the grilled section. A lot of differerent skewers to choose from, such as chicken, bacon with bird's egg and unagi.
Another recommendation would be their pizza, it is the Japanese thin crust pizza, I especially liked the one with wasabi and seafood on it, gives a very special twist to the otherwise seemingly normal seafood pizza.
Ramen is not recommended though. Noodles are not springy enough and the soup does not taste like a lot of effort has been put in.
However, the drinks is a bit pricey. An alternative choice to ordering that will be purchasing some meal sets which comes with a free ice lemon tea.
My verdict: highly recommended for Japanese food lover who likes variety and Jap-fusion.
